           Summary: zd1211rw - compat-wireless wlan0 doesn't use local DNS.
           Product: Drivers
           Version: 2.5
     KernelVersion: Linux version 2.6.24-1-ixp4xx (Debian 2.6.24-6)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: network-wireless
        AssignedTo: drivers_network-wireless at kernel-bugs.osdl.org
        ReportedBy: old.codger at mac.com


Latest working kernel version:
Earliest failing kernel version:
Distribution: Debian sid
Hardware Environment: nslu2 
zd1211rw firmware version 4725 
zd1211b chip 0ace:1215 v4810 high 00-0e-8e AL2230_RF pa0 g--NS

Software Environment: compat-wireless-2008-05-04 
Problem Description:
The nslu2 cannot lookup local DNS.
I want to use ssh root at worm.local, but I am forced to use ssh root at 192.168.1.12
once ssh'd to the nslu2, I can 'w3m google.com' without issue, but I cannot ssh
to another local server without using the IP address.

The problem does not exist whilst the ethernet connection is up.

Steps to reproduce:

Worm:~# wpa_cli scan       
Selected interface 'wlan0'
OK
Worm:~# ssh pluto.local
Pluto:~ root# exit
logout
Connection to pluto.local closed.

Worm:~# wpa_cli reassociate
Selected interface 'wlan0'
OK
Worm:~# ssh pluto.local
ssh: pluto.local: Name or service not known

Worm:~# wpa_cli scan
Selected interface 'wlan0'
OK
Worm:~# ssh pluto.local
Pluto:~ root#

There are no errors in the logs
When the DNS lookup is working it works from and to the nslu2.
